Drop Down Menu in IE6 and z-index

Everything seems to be functioning fine in ff, safari, chrome, ie7…. and the HOMEPAGE in ie6 is fine… but I cannot for the life of me get the dropdown menus to appear above the content on any of the inside pages. I have been messing around with absolute and relative positioning with z-index, but I just can’t get it to work. Any help greatly appreciated!

I saw that in another thread… my only concern is that I am already using a different script to handle png’s (and I think it is better as it does tiling backgrounds and whatnot) and I have heard that the ie7.js doesnt work great with cms’ (this site is built with Drupal).

yea dont worry about that – it will only work if you lable your pngs specifically, like this.

it needs the -trans bit for it to be picked up by ie7.js

Hey – you can give it a go, then delete it :) using wordpress I have had no issues… Might not even fix the problem :)

As a front end designer and developer, you should have an account on CodePen so you can save your snippets, present your ideas, and engage with other front end folk. I'd encourage you to go PRO as well, to unlock the full power of CodePen.
